Favorite ko to! I think I was 8 or 9 years old when I first had a taste of Ginataang Bilo-Bilo na luto ng mga Caviteno. Sobrang sarap! Nire-request ko yan sa kanila lalo na pag Feista. Dekada na ata ang nakalipas since I had a decent bowl of this. May pamahiin pa nga sila (mga Caviteno). Ang buntis, pinapakuha ng isang bilo-bilo tapos itatapon sa apoy. Pag pumutok at may patulis, lalake daw magiging anak nya. Babae, otherwise. Aliw, noh!

My mom is an expert cook on this, being a bicolana. This is an all-time fave in our household growing up. When we were young, my sisters and i help make the purple bilo-bilo. Bonding time as we tell jokes and stories. Even when we migrated here in the states, we did it. Now that we have our own families, i take pride in introducing this dish to friends. The best feeling I get after i cook this is when our daughter would ask me to save some for her for the next day. nakakatuwa thinking she’s 5 then.

I’ve been reading some of your posts and wow. I never knew my mouth could water so much! I missed all the Philippine foods and just seeing the pictures of it made me that much more homesick! Ginataan reminds me of rainy days, just sitting at home, and eating it warm. Oh, the good ol’ days. haha.
